Petition Action

Make it illegal to push religious ideas onto children under the age of 18.

Petition Details

Children should be taught only about scientific fact at home and in school. This way they can make their own decision as to whether they agree with the teachings of a religion once they reach the age of 18, and join whichever religion they feel they fit into most.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The UK Government and Parliament are not responsible for what parents teach their children at home. You could start a new petition asking for faith schools to be banned, if that's what you want to happen.
